When asked if he was getting along with G-Dragon, he replied, "Haha I am busy but he is even busier."

Fans and observers alike were perplexed by the timing of the messages-- less than a week after the death of someone he had, according to reports, been in a six-year relationship with.

A lot of people were shocked and disgusted by the actor's behavior, questioning the actor's morals and emotional state in light of the tragedy.

Netizens also commented, "Are you even human?" As a human being, do you not sense any semblance of sympathy? And "What a terrible person."

Some people felt he was more concerned about "optics" than mourning, as one person claimed, "Acting like a money hungry, not even able toresist refunding bubble -- nice to see his true colors."

It was also mentioned that Kim Soo Hyun attended G-Dragon's listening party on February 25, only two days after he sent the above messages on Bubble.

His critics claimed this was because he needed to avoid having to refund fans in the event of inactivity on the platform by the end of the month.

Meanwhile, there have also been rumors speculating the reason why Kim Soo Hyun did not attend Kim Sae Ron's funeral.

According to sources around him, he really wanted to go, but at the suggestion of his manager and staff, he ended up sending flowers instead.

There was concern that the appearance could reignite rumors surrounding their history together, especially with so many paparazzi visible at the actual event.

Kim Soo Hyun's agency has apologized and released a statement to clarify the actor's view over Kim Sae Ron's death and the previous relationship that had taken place.
